I strongly assume the e-mail will only be acceptable in printed form, right? 😅
obviously fake, as the email would need to be faxed, not shown.
Das hab ich oft, viele Deutsche heutzutage verstehen pünktlichkeit nicht, mir wurde früher beigebracht bei wichtigen Terminen 5-10 Minuten zu früh zu kommen bzw. min 10-15 Minuten wenn man eventuell sich vorbereiten muss (Bewerbungsgespräch etc.)
*Edit: Forgot its an english subreddit, i will leave the german statement in case of translation errors:
I experienced this often, many germans dont know what punctuality means these days.
I got tought to allways be 5-10 minutes early or even 10-15 minutes if i had to prepare something (f.e. job interview)
